NAME: Craig Morejon WHERE: Yonkers, NY CRIME: Adorable 5-week-old kitten weighing just 1lb survives being thrown from a third floor window during a domestic argument A 5-week-old kitten named Precious has survived being tossed out a suburban New York third-floor window during a domestic argument. Officials say the 1-pound female kitten suffered a mouth injury but no broken bones. Westchester County SPCA enforcement director Ernest Lungaro says the kitten apparently landed on all fours. He says the kitten was thrown from the window in a Yonkers apartment building on Waverly Avenue on Sunday and hit the sidewalk approximately 30 feet below. At the time, the kittens owner was having a dispute with her ex-boyfriend, identified as Craig Morejon. Lungaro says Morejon fled and a warrant has been issued for him, alleging assault and animal abuse. Lungaro said Tuesday he has seen many instances of animal cruelty during domestic violence. When I initially got this call, I was expecting a cat that was going to have severe injuries, Mr Lungaro told local radio station 1010 WINS. Three stories up is quite a distance for a cat to fall and survive. The fuzzy, white kitten with brown and black markings is now back with her owner.
